What's the version of Windows running on cats-judge servers now? I've been

Yes, Windows Server 2008.

And if so, then I'm gonna set a minimal supported OS version to Windows
Vista because of
https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/windows/desktop/aa363794%28v=vs.85%29.aspx
(CancelSynchronousIo) which I'm gonna make use of.
I would prefer it to be soft-check, i.e. load the proc dynamically
only if it is needed
(which should be for multi-process only?).
So the Spawner will continue to work on earlier Windows versions for
single-process runs.
